i was looking for best value for money a couple of months ago and based on all reviews went for Pro Lite Bracciano's - will be riding with them for first time on next week, so can give feedback then - my budget was R3000.

 

I see however that the Bracciano's are on special at ribble.co.uk (have not used them, but they seem reliable in online reviews) for about R2000, seems like a steal.

 

Cool
